The perfect nurse for the perfect crime.
For years, Roma Becker lived by one rule: never go back.
Not to the trailer park.
Not to the memories.
Not to the girl she used to be.
She spent her life becoming someone else—careful, composed, untouchable. But when the man accused of murdering her mother is sent to a psychiatric facility instead of death row, Roma’s carefully ordered life begins to fracture.
Because Roma has never truly been alone in her own mind.
Thunderbird—the fierce, buried part of herself forged by childhood trauma and sharpened by rage—wants what Roma has never allowed herself to seek: revenge.
Taking a job inside the institution may bring Roma closer to the truth about her mother’s death. It may also bring her closer to the darkest parts of herself.
As old memories rise and control begins to slip, Roma must confront a terrifying possibility:
Thunderbird may be the only one strong enough to finish this.
And once she does, Roma may be gone for good.
